Noticed the same in Waterford over the weekend too - I'll be passing Carrick-on-Suir later, I'll try there

No stock in Carrick on Suir yesterday evening

Balls, was only up there earlier, although on the plus side I couldn't have got them pre 10.30pm either way. My stocks were getting low, time to restock.

When offer valid until?

I still would love to know whether someone is pocketing a profit, as Frankziskaner can be got on a deal in Germany for €10 for 20 bottles, 50c incl VAT per bottle, 40c approx before taxes (regular price more like €15 per 20bottles).

Obviously on deal it means that theres little profit in it for anyone, but still, it cant be that expensive to ship from Germany to Ireland in a container. Just working it out with the plastic crates, a pallet takes 8crates with 20x500ml bottles in a layer, 5 layers stacked, 36 pallets in a 40ft truck - is 28,800 bottles. With paper boxes it'd be more , but just leave it as it is for now.
A 40 foot container seems to cost in or around €2000 to ship from UK to the continent, so lets be generous and say €3000 from Ireland, so simply 10c per bottle in transport from GER-->IRL.

If you add the 10c transport to 50c beer in Germany (or 40c before VAT), add 56c Irish excise per 500ml 5% beer, add 23% irish VAT to base price of 106c (10c transport, + 40 c beer + 56c excise) and you come out at €1.30 per bottle

Obviously, you probably need to reduce the base price as theres a bit of margin for the retailer in the initial 40c before taxes in Germany, but still, I actually thought Lidl was being a bit sly, but actually €1.25 is as cheap as you'll ever see in Ireland for foreign reasonably strong beer without selling under cost.

Who cares? It's beer.

It's incredibly cheap, considering the transport, handling etc.

Even in Germany bottles in supermarkets (ones that I've seen anyway) would tend to be in the 60c to 90c price range, although I'd imagine you'd get cheaper in those specialist beer shops where you buy by the crate-load.

Not a huge mark-up by any means. If only they'd get the Dunkel in.

Had a mate check stock in Wexford Town Lidl - NONE

Are we sure this deal is "live" ?

RayCon

Must check the 2 local Lidls :eek:

vicwatson

Maybe nenagh is a single store selling them off? As nowhere else seems to have stock.

Barr

Anyone seen it in Cork ?

The price rduction label (didn't see the expiry) was on the shelf in Carrick on Suir, there just wasn't any stock

Delboy5

None in Lidl Cavan

I asked Lidl and this was the response....

"Firstly may we take this opportunity to thank you for your request in connection with a Franziskaner Wheat Beer 5.0%. At present this item is not available in our stores. Furthermore we have no advance information about its proposed sale in the coming months."

Dunnes have been selling this at 5 for 10 euro which may explain why Lidl do not have it available. With the Dunnes 20% off , it works out at 1.60 a bottle. Good value...not as good as 4 for 5 but:D

Only a few left in Lidl on the Johnswell Rd in Kilkenny. Didn't check the one in Smithlands

Blankety

Castleblayney zero stock, the sign 4 for 5 was in place offer dates 07/11-18/11 ( think it was 18/11) but no stock, the shelve was bunged with tyskie bottles.
Strange for there to be zero stock offer or not, don't give up, always heard "good things come to those who wait".

TheDriver

None in my local in Cork. Summer sizzler was 1.49 though

Padraig Mor

None in Cobh, and there's always some there!

Spocker

Managed to get 2 boxes in Thomastown, and thats all that was on the shelf

Shelf label says the offer is running until 20/11

vicwatson

I despair with lidl sometimes, customer services seem to know or be told nothing, never mind the store managers who know even less. It's like some dude on planet lidl sits there pressing random stock buttons to send to stores but tells no one when or where the goods are going. Crazy system

prodsc

Was told it has been taken off offer as it has been unavailable for 3 weeks!

Another example of how Lidl haven't a clue what they are on about in their customer services dept/purchasing/management - saw this earlier -

"lidl can confirm this beer will be back in stores as part of our everyday range in about 2 weeks time, we don't know of it will be on special"

So you decide:rolleyes:
